" I took my family to Restaurant Mariposa last weekend, and we had quite the experience! The food was delightful, especially the chicken fried rice and Kung Pao chicken. You could truly taste the authenticity in every bite. However, the service left a lot to be desired. We had to wait a long time for our food to arrive, which was frustrating since the restaurant was nearly empty. Nonetheless, I would recommend this place to anyone who cherishes genuine Chinese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you enjoy long waits for delicious food, then Restaurant Mariposa is for you! The authenticity shines through in every dish, especially the house specialties. Just be prepared for a leisurely dining experience! I keep coming back because no other place has food that compares. Just manage your expectations on service. It still gets a thumbs-up from me! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible find! I was recommended to try Restaurant Mariposa, and it did not disappoint. The dumplings were fresh, and the broth flavorful. Definitely authentic dishes that you won't find in your typical restaurant. The only downside is the long wait for food, so make sure you're not starving when you arrive. Otherwise, it's a gem and I can't wait to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" It's hard to find good Chinese food in Tijuana, but Restaurant Mariposa delivers on its promise. Their crispy duck and homemade sauces are top-notch! Although the place feels slightly cramped, the food definitely makes it worthwhile. Just don't expect a fast dining experience; it's all made fresh, so a bit of patience is required! I would visit again if cravings strike. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic! I've eaten at a lot of Chinese restaurants, but Restaurant Mariposa tops them all in Tijuana. The flavors are rich, and you can tell that everything is fresh. The portions are generous, too. However, I did notice the service was a bit slow. But the food is worth the wait! I'll definitely be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Restaurant Mariposa is a hit and miss. Their food is robust and delicious, especially their shrimp dishes. However, on both my visits there, the service was subpar at best. If you can overlook the service, the food will have you coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Feeling adventurous, I visited Restaurant Mariposa to try their famous wonton soup. It didn't disappoint! Full of flavor and well-spiced, it's a highlight for any fan of Asian cuisine. However, amid all that goodness, the service was hit or miss. The place was oddly reserved, and I didn't really feel welcomed. I’m willing to give it another shot just for that delicious soup!
